Wanganui Chronicle, Volume XXIX, Issue 11249, 21 July 1886, Page 2

The very guarded manner in which Mr Campbell Bunaerman, Secretary of State for War, replied to the question put to him ud to whether it was true that Lord Wolseley had stated that if Mr Gladstone's Home Rale Bill passed he and one thousand other officers would ihrow up their commissions and hetd the Protestants of Ulster, wiia considered by the English Press generally a3 an admission that the statement was in the main correct. Mr Campbell Bannerinau said the rumour might perhaps have been left to the contradiction furnished by its own native absurdity. He was authorised by Lord Wols-ley, however to formally contradWb that he hid ever alluded to the subject mentioned in any speech he had ever delivered j and, as regarded the question, aa it effected oncers of tho army generally, he must express his firm conviction that the stattmeat referred to was absolutely and entirely devoid of truth. WVregret to have to record that Miss Turner made her last appearance in Wan* ganui musical circles at last night's concert given by the Harmonic Society. Ever since her arrival in Wanganui this young lady has always associated herjelf with the singing fraternity, greatly to their advantage, and we feel sure that she will be Badly niwaotl. We understand she leaves for Lhri'tchureh next Monday. It you cannot get Woitf's Schnapps in one house, it ia much bettor for you to go, where yeu can get it.
